Care for Kids - Cinco Ranch - Urgent Care Near Me - Katy, Texas

This place is easy to work with and FAST! I honestly don't understand why some reviews say otherwise. When it comes to our kids, of course parents want things handled quickly, and every time I've gone, I've been in and out. Most importantly, my kids are seen by caring physicians and an amazing staff. The nurses and doctors always give thoughtful advice and don't just rush straight to antibiotics. They actually do the proper testing, explain the results, and make sure you get the right treatment. I have an 11-year-old, a 3-year-old, and a 1-year-old, so when one gets sick, they usually all do. The doctors are always welcoming, patient, and helpful with all of them, and they consistently help get my babies back to their healthy selves! read more

Worse experience. They are all about money. We took our older son they said he has straps and gave him antibiotics.. few days later our older son had the same symptoms we took him there and they said he is negative for everything but after 3 days with fever and soar throat we took him back and said he needs to be given antibiotics he has the same symptoms as the older son and you didn't diagnose him correctly 3 days ago and they wanted to charge us another $150... so $150 for the older son then $150 for the younger son and then again they wanted to charge $150. They wouldn't see him. We have been going here for 5 years. They lost a wonderful customers because all they care about is money and not taking care of the kids. read more

I use to love this location. It was always fast and in and out. Now you make an appointment online and you have to wait over two hours. They are super slow, poor customer service, and they need help. They need more nurses and more doctors. read more

I think I know why this place has so many bad reviews and I know the hack to quick care here for $75 with out insurance. This place has a long wait to see the doctor "IN OFFICE". From the looks of it there is one doctor and about 6-8 rooms filled with a patient every time I go. That's one individual human that has to see each patient, mark notes, vitals, prescribe medication and diagnoses in the patients charts. There is only so much 1 person can do and the nurses, assistants and office staff can legally only work within their realm. Now for the way to get quick care in and out in about an hour. 1. Create an appointment online 2. Check in and arrive to said appointment 3. When you walk in, go to the window and let them know you have an appointment but would like to have a telemedicine appointment instead 4. They will give you a place to wait and a link to sign up at 5. You click the link and pay for your appointment ($75 with out insurance versus $150 with out insurance in office) 6. They send you another link for the actual video visit, click the link and "get in line" 7. The longest I have waited for the Dr to accept the call is 25 minutes (in office appointments take 2 or more hours telemedicine appointments takes maybe 45 minutes- 1 hour) 8. You tell the doctor on the phone the symptoms the child is having as well as the vitals that the nurse gave you and they will tell you what test they recommend getting done 9. The assistant or nurse come and swab or test the child for what ever tests you have decided on (each test is extra $$ but they vary in price) 10. You leave and the send you and email with the results and send medication to your pharmacy ( every time the longest this has taken is 25-30 minutes and I just waiting the area to pick up the medication) I really hope this is helpful to families looking for quick test and answers for their babies. Please consider this is just my experience but I feel like I am in and out each time I go! read more

*UPDATED* this morning. I received a call from the clinic manager before opening hours because she saw my review. She was very apologetic and advise me because it's busy season, there are some seasonal staff and that she would address all the issues with them because there is information that was given to me incorrectly about the process. If your test results are negative you do not receive a call, they send you an email but it almost always goes to spam. I did check my spam and I still do not have an email from them but I am giving them a star back because I am happy with the level of customer service from the manager - she handled this first thing this morning and I didn't even have to call to get the information I needed This started out a great experience, but ended up horrible, and I would not recommend anybody go here. Especially if it's close to closing time because you'll get screwed and leave without any medication for your kid. The staff was super nice. We walked in and within 15 minutes. We were in a room. Vitals were done and then the nurse asked us if we would like to do a Teledoc appointment on the iPad because the wait usually 10 to 15 minutes compared to 40 minutes to an hour for an actual physician to come in the room. So I said yeah that's fine. We waited about another 15 minutes. A nurse practitioner came on the video. She was super great the whole experience there was good. They ordered a flu test. Within five minutes. A nurse was coming back in to swab. So all that went great! where they lost all of their stars and why I would never recommend or return there is: it was about 8:56 pm after the swab, she told us we could leave but we hadn't gotten the results or prescription or anything. And she said that that all goes through the Teledoc service that the nurse practitioner will call us back and give us a test results and send in the prescription. I said, but what if the results are negative, then we need to test for some thing, other than the flu... And she said well they'll call you and tell you that it's negative. And I said well I still need a prescription like physically in my hand because it's almost 9 o'clock and all the pharmacies are closing so if I leave and I get to the pharmacy and they don't have the prescription I can't call you guys because your closed and I'm just SOL. And she said well they'll give you a call in 30 minutes and then they'll work with you to find a pharmacy that's open and then you'll receive an email with all the information and the prescriptions and she assured me that it's pretty smooth process. But there I am waiting for an HOUR in the parking lot of the urgent care for my text or call come through confirming the test results and I got NOTHING. So I'm going home with a sick kid that has the flu, I presume, But no medication. So this system they have set up is awful especially at closing time. read more

I am still waiting in the room for a doctor after and hour and 45 mins. That's with having a scheduled appointment. They overbooked and tell you to get over it. read more

Great care for my son. The wait was a little longer however it was Christmas break. I thought the waiting areas was small and required a little sanitation when patients (kids) and their parents leave. read more

They don't EVER answer the phone! It's an automated system that forces u to go to website, so you never actually receive help or get someone on the phone when the pharmacy says they still don't have a prescription that was supposedly sent hours ago! read more

I been here before but this time is the worst. We have an appointment at 1:24 pm and have to wait for more than an hour to get checked by the doctor. The reason we have to come here because it's near to my house but since the service is not good,we will go somewhere else. read more

I am actually surprised at how many low ratings there are for this urgent care . I have received the absolute BEST services at this location. They are so caring and so so gentle and they don't cut any corners. Dr. Tracy is amazing and my daughters nurse was so sweet and interactive (I wish I could remember her name, younger nurse with dreads ) They actually care to make the kids feel comfortable while being treated and that means everything to me! I so wish she could come here for primary care. read more

Four months ago, my daughter was sick with fever, most of the children urgent care was full so we went to this place. The front office told us the total charge for this visit is $187, we paid and left. We wait there for almost 2 hrs before we can see the doctor, which is also frustrating. Now, after 4 months, they mailed us a remaining balance to pay $77, makes the total as $264 for the visit. Nothing special just a regular urgent care visit. We took our kid to a few other urgent cares in Katy areas and mainly $140-160 total, pay upfront and no surprise bill after. I called the billing office and they just use the insurance company as an excuse. We use the same insurance at all the other children urgent cares and $100 less than what your office charges. If you don't want to be over charged and get surprised bill afterwards. Please stay away from this urgent care!!! I will report this to Health and Human Services Commission!!! read more

Brought my daughter in for covid test April 2020 and was told there was no charge (free covid testing was available everywhere). Later, they billed me $150 and blamed my insurance. Insurance says they need to refile it as a covid test (not a global urgent care fee) to be paid, but urgent care refuses. Unethical and dishonest billing for covid testing. read more

I wish I checked reviews for this medical establishment on different websites. The care they provided for my child was beyond unacceptable. My daughter was diagnosed with strep troat several day before our vacation, and they prescribed antibiotics for treatment. We went on vacation to Europe, which I planned for eight months, paying for hotels in Paris, London, and Brussels, reserving restaurants and activities. When we arrived in Paris, my daughter's fever appeared again unexpectedly after several days in antibiotics. We had to invite a doctor to the hotel to check on her, and when he looked at the medication, he said that the dosage was too low for your weight! It's unbelievable! Instead of going to touristic places in the beautiful city, I had to run around looking for new medication! My daughter was feeling bad and me and my husband too! I couldn't find the antibiotics under the first prescription, so the doctor gave me an alternative one, and again, I had to spend my time and money going to different pharmacies of Paris! It is absolutely unacceptable! Our vacation was ruined. My daughter was running 5 more days of fever until she finally started feeling better. I do not recommend going to this place to anyone! read more

My son did the online mobile Covid Testing with them. I am not happy that the fee was not disclosed at the beginning prior to the appointment. My insurance did not cover any of the Covid Testing, which is surprising. Right now Free Covid Tests are available everywhere even WITHOUT any insurance, so I am not happy about the unexpected bill I received a couple of months later. read more

Absolutely amazing, efficient and positive experience using the virtual appointment app Solv., and the crib side service provided by the staff at the Katy Urgent Care for Kids location, especially Melissa at the front desk! You don't even have to get out of your car!! #excellentservice #innovative #customerfocused read more

Waited for 2 hours for an appointment and they keep taking walk ins. Very unprofessional don't take your kids here.

People eating in front of patients, there should have a room for that. Takes forever to get it. I made an appointment for 2:45pm it's 3:45 and still waiting. Did I mention it's only me waiting at the lobby read more

Great doctors, great staff, short wait time...what else can you ask for! Finally there is a place in Cinco Ranch where I can take my kids after-hours when their pediatrician is closed. They are open nights and weekends which works great with my family's schedule (considering they exclusively seem to get sick on nights and weekends). Super fast and friendly and you can check in online and skip the paperwork which I love. They have a real Pediatrician there at all times which is very important to me. This is definitely my new favorite place and I'm never going back to an ER or regular urgent care. read more

See all

The service is horrible, Per urgent care professionals They checked my kids and they didnt notice anything wrong with my sick kids. When having a high fever and green Boogers. They didn't Prescribe any medication. Unsatisfied with the results, I booked a later appointment to the pediatric clinic the kids attend and the pediatric found inflammation inside the ears mucus which were green boogers And they Prescribe anabiotic's. Poor service They will only see your child to take insurance money. You could tell they are care less about the children now they start seeing adult t gene id f read more

I received a bill in October for $50 for PPE they used in my June antibody appt. So I paid it off after talking to my insurance. It's January literally 7 months later and I get a Bill for $30, 2 $15 copays from the same visit, wtf. Oh and it's in collections. This is the first time I've seen it. I called at 4:45, whomever does billing isnt answering because the the answering machine says the work 9-5. I like the clinic but the billing is ridiculous and it's not worth all this headache and bogus charges. read more

I absolutely love this clinic. I have been brining my children here for the past few years. I love this clinic because it is clean, the staff is very professional and friendly and I have never had to wait over 10 minutes to see a doctor. They accept my insurance and at the end of the visit, they give your child a rubber ducky. Love this place! read more

Care for Kids - Cinco Ranch - Urgent Care Near Me - Katy, Texas

The Doctor here seems to treat everyone as a number. It seems she had "an agenda" of absolutely no antibiotics no matter what. I took my 15 mo old grandson-in. He had been sick for 5 days with high temp and cough. Dr did a flu test on him and it was negative. She said "thought" it was a virus. I said I believed it was more than that at this point... after 5 days of a very sick baby running 102 fever. I disagreed with the diagnosis. The Dr said she did not want to promote antibiotic "abuse". She absolutely refused to offer him any antibiotics. Or any other meds for that matter. I was not going to let this baby go another day suffering like this. I Immediately went to another urgent care down the street. I was immediately seen and the dr wanted to run another flu test (understood ) and RSV test. Both were negative. The dr said he didn't like the fact that this high fever had gone on for 5 days and he said he felt safer to go ahead and prescribe an antibiotic at this point and the baby being only 15 mos. I felt much more comfortable with this diagnosis since the baby had been sick so long. He was very thorough, kind, and compassionate which is what a dr should be. I will NEVER recommend or return to Urgent Care for Kids Katy. No way! When you are treated like a number and not a person, there's a problem.I also believe many of these positive reviews are promoted from a marketing company. Note: 24 hours later, after antibiotics and meds, Baby is much better, no fever, and coughing has gone way down. No thanks to Urgent Care for Kids-Katy. Stay away from this place. read more

This urgent care is the best great customer service. It's very convenient if one my kids are ill no wait time always prompt and efficient with kids. My #1 place to go please keep up the great work read more

Had scheduled an appointment. We did end up waiting an hour. But with covid and everything going on it is understandable. The nurses were great with my daughter. They took the extra step to help calm her down and we're very patient with her. Would definitely be back, if needed. read more

Recommended place for Camp Ozark rapid Covid Testing. Nightmare. Even with appointment it took 3 hours. Disorganized with lots of angry parents. I suggest to get your COVID test elsewhere is you can. read more

I recently brought my son here for allergy related issues. I went online and checked in (scheduled appointment), also registered him (optional to do online or in person). I received a text message 30 minutes before our appointment saying it was time to be on our way. The entire process was so easy, convenient and painless. We arrived about 15 minutes before our appointment (the texts asks that you arrive at least 10 minutes before). I had only a few things to fill out since this was our first time and because I did the online registration. We waited about 10 minutes before being called back into our room. What made this such an exceptional experience was that my son had just arrived in Houston at 7:30pm on a Friday night from out of town and would be leaving again Sunday afternoon. This meant I had a small window to get him to the dr. before Sunday. Had this been 5 years prior this would have easily been an entire Saturday morning spent sitting in an over crowded dr. office. We had a bit of a waiting period once we received a room, but the staff was still very pleasant. As we were the last patient of the day. As a parent with a sick child, we only have one goal and anyone standing in our way... So help them God!! We just want our kids well again. This facility made the process more convenient for our schedule, not to mention they also accepted his UnitedHealth care insurance. I would definitely recommend. read more

This place is amazing! We've been there twice and both time they've treated us great! My son was taken care of and they saw us promptly. The nurse practitioner and her staff were really sweet and supportive. Definitely recommend them! read more

We used to love this place. Easy to get same day appointments, they don't make you wait forever past your appointment time. But after our last visit, we will never be back. My 2 year old daughter had a cold and was complaining that her head/ear hurt so we took her in to be seen as it was Friday and her pediatrician was closed. They looked in her ears and determined that she had an ear infection. They was a tan/yellow thing visible in her ear and they said it was just a lot of wax and the ear was swollen. 2 weeks of antibiotics later and if anything, her pain is worse. I look in her ear and I went to clear that visible wax and turns out it was a STICK. It was 1.5-2" long STICK sticking out of her ear. When they LOOKED in her ear I am not sure how they missed it. She was in unnecessary pain for weeks and the foreign object caused a lot of damage inside her ear that we have been treating for over a month afterward now. I placed a complaint with corporate. I missed a call at 9pm on a Friday night, called back the next day but have never heard back. They are obviously rushing through appointments without actually seeing their patients concern. I am glad they're is no permanent damage but am horrified that my young toddler had to suffer because of their negligence. My pediatricians office has said that they hear a lot of similar complaints about this urgent care. read more

I would give zero stars if I could. Please don't be fooled by the nice office. I was billed incorrectly - and made to pay my deductible even though it is clearly written on my insurance card that office visits and urgent care do NOT require a deductible. When I called my insurance to confirm that I had been billed incorrectly they said to contact the urgent care about settling a refund. I spoke with the woman at urgent car regarding the bilking she said the person who ran my insurance must not have checked with my insurance provider ahead of time and that in 4-6 weeks once the claim had been run through insurance then a refund would be made for the 200 plus dollars I paid to be seen. So I asked would the money just be credited back to my debit card. She said no it would be credited to an acct there at the urgent care to be used at future visits. And that they have wayyyyy to many locations and only 4 people working in billing to keep track of everyone's refunds. She said if I wanted the money to go back to the debit card and not to an acct with the urgent care then it would be MY responsibility to contact the urgent care in 4-6 weeks to have them credit to my debit card. MY responsibility - for YOUR mistake. Oh and the idea of creating an acct with 200 plus dollars of credit at a pedi urgent care?? Why so my children can be seen for free over the next 7 years to use up the money you over charged me. I live out of town and would never be back in that urgent care to get to use my 200 plus dollars that l'd been credited to be used at that urgent care - so who would reap the benefits. The urgent care. This is highway robbery, and extremely negligent and lucrative. Please recommend to all your friends and family to be weary of billing policy's and practices at this urgent care. read more

Great service I recommend this place . I felt great with this place that I would come back staring to love this place.

I went today because my son just got pinkeye and his pediatrician's practice was already closed. I got there around 8pm, the nurses were super kind and helpful. Wait time was barely nothing. The pediatrician was very helpful and kind too. He got his prescription and we were ready to go before 9:30. Everything is electronic which I love. And last but not least: THE OFFICE SMELLS SO CLEAN love love love. Would definitely come back. Strongly recommended. read more

Waiting time is horrible even considering the flu disaster. Expect 1+hour to get in. It's not even a doctor, but only a nurse practitioner.

Always very helpful. Friendly staff. I have not used the online check in feature but my wit time as a walk in has not been too long.

Update: Beware!!!i find odd that someone mentioned about people getting gift cards if they leave good reviews to the establishment!!!! Horrible! That's why reviews are so relative!!! Went there yesterday after reading the reviews and what a disappointment! The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because of the friendly front desk lady and the nice nurse ( who seamed more compassionate then the " real" doctor there) So 2 weeks ago my 6 month baby had really red, swollen pink eyes and we took her to Texas children ER, after that she was treated with the medication the doc prescribed and got so much better... Ok now keep that information in mind.. So yesterday took my baby to urgent care for kids...It was raining and cold! Got there at 8 pm ( they close at 9pm) my 6 month baby has been coughing, started 2 days ago..no fever at all but yesterday she was worse, specially at night! she was fussy and crying ( obviously with a red sleepy eyes due to her cold and come on it was 8 pm for a 6 month baby to be awake) it had nothing to do with the pink eyes event from 2 weeks ago , it was not swollen anymore. In fact it was all clear the day before yesterday..,. I did mentioned the pink eyes event to the nurse just to let them know the medication she took. So doctor came in, didn't bother to be nice or compassionate at all, barely said a" Hi", then the first sentence it came out from her mouth was: " so you told her eyes is/ look better?!?!?!?! It looks horrible!!!!!".... Excuse me?!?!! Extremely rude, you don't have to be a super smart person to notice she was having a cold, that she is a baby , she was fussy, crying and tired and plus you can defiantly tell the difference between a swollen pink eye and a baby tired/ cold eyes ! So I did find her comment and tone extremely unprofessional. 2- she didn't spend more then 5 minutes with us, she seamed in a hurry to get out of there quick ( after all it was almost closing time Hun?!) checked her heart and her ears but didn't bother to check the throat even after I mention the bad coughing ( uhh hello that's why I was there lady) my baby's voice is fading, she can't even cry and this lady comes to me and says " well we don't prescribe 6 month baby coughing medication or throat medication because she's too little) if she doesn't get better by Tomorrow take her to you pediatrician....." well it's been going on for 2 days now, that's exactly why I got there yesterday night she did get worse at night! I was Expecting some treatment! Now why do I have to wait one more day to take her to the pediatrician since I was there expecting treatment in the first place?!?what a joke, beware!! Don't always trust the hospitals, clinics just by the review numbers, maybe what's good for others may not be good for you. I will never put my feet there again, not going to recommend to anyone! Horrible horrible attitude! read more

My 4 year old daughter had a fever and sore throat during the weekend. I heard that this would be a great urgent care center to visit if we needed. They provided great service and were very prompt and efficient. We were in and out in 30 minutes. Everyone we encountered was so nice and my daughter even said she liked the place. It didn't hurt that they gave her a prize, sticker, and ducky. Visiting Urgent Care for Kids was even more convenient than visiting her pediatrician. This will definitely be our go to alternative when we need a doctor! read more

Updated** Wait time was a bit long, 1.5 hours but satisfied with the service at the time. It was very crowded. Doctor was ok, didn't spend more than 5 minutes with my son. However, at the time the doctor thought my son had a viral infection and wasn't worth a more extensive look. After my son had another episode three days later, I took him to our family doctor to find he was misdiagnosed and has a severe allergy. I was refunded the high cost of the visit though due to the misdiagnosis(minus the copay). So, overall, it turned out ok. It is a Family friendly atmosphere and I suppose I would return again if I needed to seek care on a weekend. Though, I do have to mention, clients are encouraged to post reviews to Yelp and show the receptionist to receive a gift card. Since you have to show the receptionist I can't see many negative reviews being posted. I guess there is always a way around the "no paying to have negative reviews altered or removed from yelp" . read more

I have been here a couple of times. I love it. They are fast efficient and really good with kids. NP House was awesome. Definitely will go back. read more

This is an update from a previous review. Once again I majorly applaud Urgent Care for Kids. We went in once again, (the following year from our preview visit) to have my 5 year old tested for flu. The wait was longer than last time, but not a huge deal (totally expected as it was a couple days before Xmas and there were several other kids with exact same symptoms) The nurse that helped us in our room though, he deserves an award for the most amazing nurse on staff! He made the experience so incredibly fun and had me laughing hysterically the entire time. He was a comedic relief to the chaos already going on with having a sick child. He joked with my nervous daughter & reassured her that she was "super woman" (because of the boots she wore that day) That comment just had her in awe since we say her dad is "Superman" I wish I could remember what his name is! If he happens to read this, thank you. I want you to know how much I appreciate the positive experience we had. It's such a nice relief to go into an office and meet nurses who seem to genuinely love what they do and genuinely love to interact with their patients. You made our visit top notch! read more

Quick, convenient, and excellent with kids. We've been to other urgent care offices that specialize in kids and this is our favorite so far. Reception is friendly, nurses are caring , and doctors are helpful and willing to explain their findings. We'll be back when we can't get to our doctor! read more
